FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for running?
The New Balance 57/40 is designed as a lifestyle and casual sneaker; it is not recommended for long-distance running or high-intensity workouts.
How should I clean the leather upper?
Wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid submerging the shoes in water.
Do these shoes come in different widths?
The 57/40 series typically follows standard adult sizing. Check the specific product listing for width availability.
Is the material real leather?
Yes, this model features a premium leather upper construction.
Can I replace the insoles?
Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing you to insert custom orthotics if required.
How do I ensure I am buying the right size?
Refer to the UK size guide provided; since this is a leather-based shoe, it is best to ensure the fit is comfortable from the start as the leather will not expand significantly.
Troubleshooting
Creasing on the leather upper
Use a shoe tree when not wearing the sneakers to help maintain their original shape and minimize deep creases.
Dirty outsoles or traction loss
Use a soft-bristled brush with mild soapy water to remove debris from the tread patterns to restore grip.
Reflective elements appearing dull
Gently wipe the reflective strips with a clean, dry microfiber cloth to remove dust buildup.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your New Balance 57/40 sneakers remain in top condition, follow these guidelines:
- Fit: Ensure you select the correct UK size, as the leather upper offers limited stretch compared to synthetic knits.
- Care: Clean the leather surface using a soft, damp cloth. Use a leather-specific conditioner periodically to prevent cracking.
- Storage: Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent leather fading and material degradation.
- Moisture: If the shoes become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources like radiators to preserve the shape of the leather.
